The Samsung Galaxy A02 is a budget Android smartphone manufactured by Samsung Electronics as a part of its A series. The phone was announced and released in January 2021. It features a 6.5-inch 720p touchscreen display, a dual camera setup, and comes with One UI 2.5 over Android 10. It had very compelling selling points such as a big display, massive battery, and its cheap price, but its lack-luster camera, below average performance, and embarrassing laggy UI, and feature less UI, it has remained as one of the worst Samsung A series phones ever released. Aside from all of its negatives, it shares some of the same features of a similar device released by Samsung, the Samsung Galaxy M02.[5] 2G/3G LTE/4G
